really?ppl said that..i thought the slim was better

for me fat is better when playing games,(i mean,when u hold the psp and play because if the back thing,a bit curve)-[dunno how to say] the psp slim dun have the curve thingy,but the screen looks better than fat

and the m.stick slot,i like fat more

Hi all,

I am using PSP phat version, when he plug in his psp to PC, the ISO and ohters folder name become funny funny character and can not access it, error msg" no permission to access it" And the antivirus detect few viruses.
How to fix it?
Is it format the memory? it will create the folder by itself?
Can I upgraded my phat PSP ? can I directly download latest version and upgrade the firmware?
thanks

if you buy it from a sony center, the warranty will be global. though the warranty card will be in japanese, it'll still be global.

if you had flashed a custom firmware in it, just flash an official firmware again. they wont know the psp was running on CFW. there is no way to tell.
unless it cant be pandora. then you'll stuck with official firmware forever.

Go to any local game shop to ask them install custom firmware for u!!! Or u can put in your UMD game into your PSP to test whether it can read it or not! If not then it has defect!

I just google up PSP-3000 and read a review, so far, it does seem pretty cool, especially for someone who does not own a Plasma LCD TV, the TV Output function in the 3000 is pretty good for me. I noticed there's like 3 black holes, all those are the microphone?

well, the TA-90 was discovered in some very new psp. but one funny thing is, it works with pandora battery with no problem at all.

maybe sony really is taking it easy with these pirates. arrr!
haha..

but seriously. the homebrew and pirate industry is the real reason why the psp is selling like hotcakes. i mean, what other console can you use to change your tv channel?

hi there.. im again outdated in the psp firmware scene.. last time i upgraded was 3.80... now i have a new problem

This time its my friends psp..
So any help is appreciated... thanks

current version of the psp : Version 3.51
Mobo version is not the TA-082 as i do not see the IC1003 number on the mobo..

my question would be.. how do i proceed to upgrade to the latest? Can i just install the M33 on it just like that? or i need to downgrade it somehow..
